In case you didn’t notice, we’re hitting the “Wow, I can kind of see what the NFL playoffs might look like!” part of the 2011 season. What better time to bring in our old friend Mike Lombardi of NFL.com and the NFL Network! We tried to figure out the six playoff teams in each conference, Super Bowl sleepers, the one “contender” that should start fading out of the picture in each conference and all that other good stuff … get ready for 50 solid minutes of NFL bliss. Thanks to Mike, as always, for being so generous with his time.
